2015-08-29
our coverage of PAX Prime 2015 is powered by HyperX check out their cloud to headset down in the description below also thank you to a soos and Corsair to start the ball rolling we've got the strafe RGB this is very similar to the actual original strafe if you want to see my video on that click the card up here but what's changed is well it's RGB the backplate is no longer red because it wouldn't really work with RGB anymore now it's white actually reflects more colors better which is pretty cool they've also gotten more brightness and vibrancy out of those LEDs but what's really cool about this keyboard isn't actually necessarily those kind of things it's a new switch that they're releasing with the keyboard called the MX silent the MX silent is an exclusive course our switch from Cherry which is I think exclusive for them for a while maybe not forever with the idea of this island is that it's based off of a red but it has a reduced travel time so instead of a four millimeter travel distance it now has a 3.7 meter millimeter travel distance but with the actuation point in the same spot which is two millimeters so basically you actually at the same time but you bought a mode a little bit faster so it should and theoretically be a faster experience a lot of people say Reds are for gaming so maybe silence or even a little bit more for gaming that's what you guys decide let me know later on when you try it after you get one of these on Twitter next up we have the Scimitar RGB mouse this is a sixteen point eight million color RGB mouse similar to the keyboard we just checked out and just like the keyboard you can configure all of the colors to match your other peripherals through the q software the sensor of this thing is a thirty nine eighty eight which has twelve thousand dpi and that's actually based off the same sensor that was in the Sabre RGB if you guys are familiar with that Mouse it has twelve macro buttons on the side which is cool and these macro buttons are Panasonic mechanical switches which is actually also pretty badass but a constant problem that people have with these MMO styled Mouse or some people use these from MOBAs as well is that it might be in the wrong position so of course they're solve that problem or address that problem but make it so you can move this bank of keys up or back for a total travel distance of eight millimeters by using a hex screw that's on the autumn of the mouse it also has a dpi indicator hidden just in front of that movable bank of macro keys and the general construction of the most is actually very similar to other models of course are my so if you're already a fan of the form factor is not going to be that different for you which is probably a good thing next up is the void series of headsets these have some pretty cool new tech on it so each one of the mics in this series has what's called info mic on the end of it the front led will basically tell you whether or not your mic is muted which could be helpful depending on what activities you do it your computer throughout the day and then the light on the back there's not the back just a little bit further back from the other one will tell you some other stuff like what EQ setting you're using if your battery's running out or if you're running Dolby or not and it can change color and do some other stuff depending on that there's also a Q control dial which can change things like it's a multi-function dial so you can press it in to change your EQ you can press and hold for Dolby toggles you can turn Dolby on or off or you can move it up or down to change your volume and you can also do that rapidly if you hold it up it will jump up to the top if you hold it down they'll jump down to the bottom for a quick mute there's actually three different models within the void lineup so starting at the top we've got Wireless at 150 dollars that one has a 40 foot range of 2.4 gigahertz signal which is pretty intense and 16 hours of battery life which is also a lot for headset good to see jumping down from that we have the USB one which is about $100 that one's very similar to the wireless one just not Wireless and then we have this stereo one that's just a 3.5 millimeter Jack cost 80 bucks and actually has multi-platform support so you can plug this into your phone into your console I guess and into your PC thanks to HyperX for sending us to PAX Prime 2015 this year you can trigger the YouTube channel up in the cards area up here you should be sure to subscribe they have some really cool gaming content also thank you to a soos and Corsair for sending us here as well if you want to see the products announced here at PAX Prime from all of these companies check out that link in the video description down below
